PLANTAE

Taylor Walther, Tyla Van Tilburg, Stephanie Perrie, Sneh Patel

Creatures in Plantae Kingdom:

Cell walls made of celluloseCannot transport materials/nutrients Large central vacuoleChloroplast, convert light energy into

chemical energy

Evolution:

Evolved from water plants Both land and water plants…

Use chlorophyllStore energyHave cellulose in cell wall

Phyla:

BryophytaNon-vascularEnclosed reproductive systemTissueLack Vascular tissue

○ Which circulates liquids

GymnospermsVascular plantsSeeds are not visible

Metabolism:

Autotrophs Producers Food and energy from light energy Photosynthesis

Structure

Eukaryotic All multicellular Cell wall structure:

Cell walls are a distinguishing aspect of plant cells

Reproduction:

Asexual and sexual reproductionGrow rapidly

Offspring develop as growth on parent Use roots and seeds for asexual

reproduction

Reproduction Cont.

Pollen

Flower Structure

Ovule

Heredity: Genetic information is stored in the

chloroplast Genetic information is duplicated and passed

on to daughter cells before, during, and after mitosis:

(1) Interphase:

(2) Prophase:

(3) Metaphase:

(4) Anaphase:

(5) Telophase:

(6) Cytokinesis:

Homeostasis: Habitats

Multiple habitats- even extreme conditionsDeserts, mountain, arctic regions, forests, jungles, oceans,

etc. Gases and Nutrients

NitrogenPhosphorusPotassiumCarbon dioxide

WaterStore water internallyAbsorb water from ground/soilTransports food and nutrients throughout the plant

Special Conditions:

All plants generally need the same things…1. Light

2. Air

3. Water

4. Nutrients

5. Room to grow

6. Proper temperature
